It was the right call but Slaughter sliding on his right side on the outside of the bag made it look worse than it actually was. If he slides on his left side, but still to the outside, he was close enough to bear hug the bag and it wouldn't have been so obvious.



Maybe, but he was clearly going for the fielder. He spiked him and everything.

He definitely was going for him and it was right either way by the way the rule is written. But it wasn't as bad as they made it out to be. He didn't touch the bag because his back was turned to it and grazed it on the way by, not because he was just too far away from it.
